Yes true! However, I have yet to start refining that attitude you proudly speak of, but as of lately, it sure smells attractive! LMAO

 

[Charlie]

You can do it! But you have to be old, like me! And not give a shit!

I have now about 75 rounds through this SW 380 bodyguard and noticed today after the end of a few clips (only 6+1 straight stack) that it had an odd "sputtering" effect in the lower twist pit of the barrel. Please 'excuse the terminology, I think the photo speaks for itself. The other areas around the barrel had a clean and consistent look. Is this what I should expect? I was shooting Winchester 380 ammo. Have been since I been breaking her in "new" from BPS that showed someone else got a few boxes threw it. So perhaps its' more like 150 to 175 rounds. Probably normal right?

Wait! You mean some of us are just acting?

You are a rank amateur.

 

[Hoji]

You sir, are even more of an amateur than he is.^^^^^^

Yeah, no shit! I've been developing this assholeian attitude for more than 50 years!

I know, I just don't want to run him off.

If he's the type to get offended and run off then we wouldn't want him here in the first place!

LOL, yeah true, I would'nt be worth crap. tuck n run? HAH, those that know me might argue that. I have to admit, I've never been professionaly shot at, but I really respect those that have. Today someone said "...your mom slapped the clip in and pulled to load the 22 pistol." He's 75 and my mom's new boyfriend, so I didn't correct him. I respect him if my mom can put up with him. She's out of her 4th marriage but I like this guy. He's from Connecticut. Has "dat pak da KAAa n dah yad" boston accent a bit, so it's entertaining.

Please tell me that's photoshopped. Otherwize I can't think of any use for those except maybe sexual perversion, inquisitions, and certain government agencies

And I thought I was at the top of my game... looks like I have a many more years before making pro.

It's always good to have a mentor for things such as this.

Not photoshopped. I picked up those "clips" just to make picture just for laughs.

I never considered the options you mentioned. Now I am in a quandary, should I be worried about you, or myself!!!!!
